How to properly prepare your roof for winter?

Winter means wind, frost, rain, snow, hail and low temperatures. These are all elements that put your roof at risk and can lead to its deterioration. Winter is also the season for leaks and other infiltrations.

To avoid all these problems and to protect your home during this harsh season, it is imperative to prepare your roof well before the arrival of this season.

It is important to clean the roof before winter in order to better protect it. Dust and various detritus can cover it entirely or partially. Some of these elements can cling to the roof and worsen the problem by preventing the flow of water to the gutters for example.

The cleaning of the roof must be meticulous and carried out with products adapted to your tiles or to the other materials which compose it. Corrosive and aggressive products should be avoided. There are special products to remove moss from tiles.

Gutters must also be checked and cleaned to ensure a smooth flow of rainwater and thus protect your roof and your home.

The best roofers of Montreal at your disposal

Never try to repair any cracks or damaged shingles on your roof yourself.

The roof of a home can be a dangerous place for anyone, even experienced personnel.

Devis Toiture's roofers are ready right now to perform roof repair in Montreal.

Carrying tools and equipment on a ladder can lead to a variety of dangerous situations where someone can get hurt.

Our roofing pros have what it takes to handle any repair process with care and caution. Leaking roofs can be a very disruptive thing.

Since the stains do not become visible immediately, mold can form and even become toxic.

There have been cases where entire families have been forced to leave their homes for long periods of time until the problem has been addressed.

This costs them a lot of money, as they have to pay extra rent for several months and pay for home repairs.

Shingle Roofs

Shingle roofs are what most Montreal homeowners find on their roofs.

We only use top brand names like GAF for purchasing and installing our materials.

We install a complete roofing system, with aluminum flashing, waterproof underlayment, ice and water shield leak barrier protection, as well as ridge cap shingles, and shingles to complete the project.

Flat Roofs

Flat roofs represent a large number of the roofing styles in the Greater Montreal area.

Flat roofs tend to deteriorate faster than shingled roofs because they don’t have a pitch and so the water puddles.

Many manufacturing warranties only last 5-10 years on flat roofs, because of the wear and tear expected from water, ice, and snow remaining on the roof surface for a long duration of time.

We are flat roof experts, from using TPO membrane self-adhered cap and base sheet installations, to roofing and flashing cement, our flat roofing projects benefit from over 20 years of flat roofing experience to produce the most watertight surface possible on a customer’s home.

The best tips for choosing a good roofer for your needs

Here are some tips that will help you to achieve the best possible experience when hiring a company for roofing.

1. Insurance is a must

Make sure your contractor has installation and liability insurance. Ask to see the certificates and call the insurance company to confirm that they are valid.

This keeps all bids on a level playing field, knowing that part of the cost of the roof and the service provided to you is protected by the security of good coverage.

2. Choose a local contractor

Make sure the company you choose is local, as there are dedicated deck waterproofing companies in town that undertake this and other types of work. Do as much research as you can on the company as being a local company they will have an established reputation in the community.

For example, if you live in Montreal, it would be best to choose a Montreal contractor for your roof repair in the Montreal area.

Many times customers have problems within the standard warranty period.

The company they chose at the time to install their roof moved or went out of business. It is very easy to provide a piece of paper, but the warranty is only as good as the longevity and reputation of the roofing company.

3. Price is not everything

Never choose a company based on price alone. It is an important factor to consider.

In the long run, you get what you pay for and customers who consider price as their only criteria end up spending more money to fix problems later, and many of those problems would have been covered by a workmanship warranty from an established and reputable roofing company.

4. Avoid storm chasers

Stay away from the door when roofers come to offer their service.

This is just prospecting and selling, so choose a roofer who you know has customers in the area and are satisfied with the work done. If you are approached with this technique, call their management and ask for a recommendation.

Most of these roofers will tell you that you have such and such damage to your roof and you need them. Don't feel pressured by these forceful tactics.

5. Get the job details in writing

It's your roof and as such, you should be in control.

We suggest that you don't pay until the job is complete and that you are satisfied with the outcome and that the payment terms have been discussed before the job and adhered to by both parties.

Be sure to ask how long the job will take. You should have a clear idea of the estimated duration of the project. It is important that bids be in writing and as detailed as possible.

The benefits of a roof inspection in Montreal

You should visually inspect the exterior of your home's roof a few times a year, especially looking for cracked, missing, loose or torn shingles around chimneys or vents.

You should also look for signs of wear on your shingles. Best practices for residential roofs include looking for signs of mold, rot or moisture.

Gutters should be cleaned at least once a year to prevent water from pooling and affecting the foundation.
